Re: cimulator cooling modification

I really dont know if this is true(haven't taken any physics yet), but i would gesstumate it being about 7500-9000 rpm.

(10*TENSILE STRENGTH)^(1/2))= BURST SPEED IN FEET PER SECOND
BURST SPEED IN FEET PER SECOND(60)(12)=SPEED IN INCHES PER MINUTE
3.141592653589793(WHEEL DIAMETER IN INCHES)=CIRCUMFERENCE IN INCHES
SPEED IN INCHES PER MINUTE/CIRCUMFERENCE IN INCHES=ROTATIONS PER MINUTE
(APPROXIMATION)
(10*8000)^.5=283
283(60)(12)=203760
PI(8)=25
203760/25=8950

I do not know if this is right.
